Description
This will be an unforgettable trip. The path crosses territories of ancient castros and the lordships of Romanesque churches that definitively mark the culture of the people of these places. The mountain and the valley, the Douro and Beira, the old and the new intertwine admirably in this territory.
The manors and manor houses, the typical and wine-producing villages, the prehistoric monuments, Romanesque churches with special emphasis on the Igreja Matriz de Barcos, classified as a National Monument, the crafts, gastronomy, legends and traditions, as well as as well as natural heritage are some of the attractions of this route and some of the main anchors of Tabuaço Tourism.
Tabuaço has some of the most beautiful corners of the Douro, very typical villages that are breathtaking, with their beautiful people and well-established culture.
